If you are planning projects in the areas of hiring and training, R&D, business development, capital investments, or green technology, lucrative grant funding is available to help offset your costs.

Understanding Grant Funding

Grants are awarded on a first come, first serve basis making it critical to align your projects with the correct programs. Although the funding is vast, there is also high levels of competition. In addition, companies are required to apply for funding before they incur costs and must pre-qualify in order to receive funds. Most companies lack the internal expertise and time in order to navigate through the application process. And many just assume that they don’t qualify.

When considering grant funding for their business, many companies are left asking themselves the following questions:

What are all the available grant programs and which ones apply to my company?

How much effort is required to apply? How much money can I get from each program?

Is it complicated to apply to the programs we are eligible for?

If I want to stay informed on program changes how do I gain visibility to the addition of new programs and updates to existing programs?

The Funding Categories

Grants go far beyond innovation, it is important to start mapping your investments into these funding categories

Common Industry Challenges

When considering applying for government funding, there are many potential road blocks which can make it challenging to know the next steps. Below are some common industry challenges many companies face:

There are thousands of programs with varying eligibility criteria and application processes, knowing which one you are eligible for can be tricky.

The funding landscape is constantly evolving with the frequent introduction of new programs, unscheduled end of existing ones, or the depletion of funds without prior notice. This makes it imperative for you to proactively identify your program of choice, and align your planned initiatives accordingly.

In contrast to most tax credits, applicants need to be approved in advance and therefore require appropriate planning and alignment with their overall business strategy. As we mentioned, when it comes to government grant funding it is imperative you apply for funding before you incur any project costs.

Due to limited funding being offered, competition is high. Therefore, it is crucial to plan your applications. Funding programs are allocated set funds and funding depletes quickly, so making sure you submit a strong application immediately is crucial to securing your business the grant funding it needs.

In addition, grant funds can also impact an organization’s SR&ED tax credit claim. Therefore, it is necessary to have a strategy to maximize the combination of both programs.
